The maintenance/porter staff are tasked with the important job of preparing the room for your event by setting up your specified room configuration, as well as ensuring that the room is properly maintained and that all amenities are in working order. When not setting up the rooms, the staff performs light maintenance duties, such as changing light bulbs and repairing equipment. Weekday afternoons and evenings and all day on weekends, these staff members will be the point of contact for your event needs. Look for them in their green "Meeting House" shirts. They will be happy to assist you.

The custodial staff cleans the rental space and the rest of the facility after your event. Mike Scott – our longest-serving custodian – has served The Meeting House since 1976, just one year after we opened for business. Mike and the other custodial staff are tasked with cleaning carpets and floors, restrooms, kitchen areas, the windows, as well as other day-to-day cleaning duties.

At the end of the evening, the maintenance/porter staff are responsible for securing the building after the departure of your guests.
